George Town: Multicultural capital of Penang🇲🇾

#malaysiatrip Exploring George Town, the vibrant, multicultural capital of Penang, was an unforgettable experience. This city, once a key trading hub in the Straits of Malacca, showcases a fascinating blend of British colonial buildings, Chinese shophouses, and mosques. Strolling through the old town, I admired the colorful heritage architecture and soaked in the rich history. Beyond the historic core, George Town revealed its modern side with towering skyscrapers and bustling shopping malls. A highlight was visiting Penang Hill, where I enjoyed hiking trails and a scenic ride on the funicular railway, offering panoramic views of the city below. George Town's unique mix of old and new made it a captivating destination.
